TLDR
Indacaterol and tiotropium provided clinically relevant improvements in lung function with comparable safety profiles and the present data offer evidence consistent with current guidelines.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease - diagnosis and management of stable disease; a personalized approach to care, using the treatable traits concept based on clinical phenotypes. Position paper of the Czech Pneumological and Phthisiological Society

TL;DR: This position paper has been drafted by experts from the Czech national board of diseases with bronchial obstruction and the Czech Pneumological and Phthisiological Society based on both the results of randomized controlled trials and data from cross-sectional and prospective real-life studies to ensure they are as close as possible to the context of daily clinical practice and the current health care system of the Czech Republic.

A self-complete measure of health status for chronic airflow limitation. The St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire.

TL;DR: The St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire is a valid measure of impaired health in diseases of chronic airflow limitation that is repeatable and sensitive andMultivariate analysis demonstrated that SGRQ scores summed a number of areas of disease activity.

Relationship between exacerbation frequency and lung function decline in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

TL;DR: It is suggested that the frequency of exacerbations contributes to long term decline in lung function of patients with moderate to severe COPD.
